Take this job and shove it!
Tin and I walked over to a neighbor’s retirement party and aside from the pimento cheese finger sandwiches that remind me emphatically of New Orleans, the best thing was the playlist – all the I am leaving this fucking stupid job and you idiot boss songs that you can imagine. They were hilarious but of course the reprise was YOU CAN TAKE THIS JOB AND SHOVE IT and so I will use that as the theme of this post.
A better day awaits all of us even if this is an unsettling time and like my friend (me) responds that especially those of us in the later years are thinking WTF as things are happening at an unsettling pace and causing lots of plans to catapult and collapse.
But I will say here and I know this to be true – this is the dawning of a new age – let’s not call it Aquarius because honestly that has never been a sign that I understood all that well okay so let’s just call it the DAWNING OF THE BULL – yes a different bull than the one that ran ramshod over the 80’s 90’s and early 2000’s this BULL is about being close to the earth – so close you can smell the dirt, and about being here, present, and not about sitting around having meetings to prepare for the unknown future – this BULL is about being virile and strong and snorting and just letting it all hang out.
Take this job and shove it – I ain’t working here no more – I just found the bull that I am and it was all I was waiting for…
Well just fill in the blanks.
